More scare tactics designed to depress the Republican vote?
Gallup polling in October finds little evidence of a surge in young voter turnout beyond what it was in 2004. While young voter registration may be up slightly over 2004, the reported level of interest in the election and intention to vote among those under 30 are no higher than they were that year.
Nice try.
You take a test in order to get a driver’s license. Why shouldn’t we be required to pass a test before being able to register to vote? I understand one is a right and one is a priviledge but we should be vetted for both.
I’m glad my generation is so apathetic: because we’re sure not smart enough to choose correctly!
My local paper is expecting a “youthquake”, but no one knows how it will go. At first it seemed the newly-registered teens were supporting Obama, but there seems to be a counter-wave now.
Everyone says that Michigan is a done deal. So maybe some of these young people won’t be voting.
Well, this 28 year old voted a few days ago.
Those kids won’t waste a sunny day, either…
Sunny in all places mentioned.

what is the weather expected for key tossup states like Ohio, PA, FLA, and VA? If an early blast of raint cold weather thits these areas, many democrat supporters will stay home. they frequently do not stand in long lines with bad weather to vote.
